Oklahoma higher ed playing key role in historic
economic development project

project currently in the works does what
state leaders envision, more business and

Paul G. Risser and Secretary of Commerce and Tourism Kathy Taylor,
recently announced the kickoff of the ambitious project known as
Oklahoma’s EDGE, an acronym for Economic Development Generating
Excellence. Risser and Taylor will spearhead the creation and direction of
the project. Read more on EDGE.
NOC, OSU partner in Gateway Program
Billed as “A Partnership for Oklahoma,” the NOC/OSU Gateway Program
began classes Aug. 18 with an enrollment exceeding 500 students,
according to Director Debbie Quirey.
The program, officially launched in conjunction with a grand opening of
Northern’s Stillwater facility Aug. 15, resulted from a partnership between
the Northern Oklahoma College and Oklahoma State University to provide
greater access to higher education for Oklahoma’s college-bound students
and a better chance of success for them in the classroom. Read more on
the Gateway Program.
